Looks like you need a more solid pedal?
Does that thing shake as much as it looks from the video?
Bass drum sounds good! I love my Emads! Got them on several kits.
I did some tuning on my Mapex Armory 22 inch kick drum. It has a nice, fat sound to it now (headphones or earbuds are recommended). The batter head is loose, the resonate head is a little tighter to give it some tone. I'm using the smaller foam ring from the EMAD heads for muffling.

I didn't have the pedal tight due to tweaking the drum. I'm still going to do a little more work. I think I have the resonate turned a little too high.

I did a little more work to it. I came off of the resonate head about a half a turn, then put about a quarter turn into the batter head. I also put the larger foam ring in for more muffling.

Sounds better from the batter side, from the reso side it has a slight metallic sound kind of like a basketball. I do not know how else to explain it, Something I always try to avoid in my kick drums.
